Trump Tells Aides Not to Pay Giuliani's Legal Fees as Bid to Overturn Election Fails
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Trump's prepared remarks came after his aides reportedly warned him he
faces serious legal exposure once he leaves office. The Washington Post
reports Trump has instructed aides not to pay $20,000-a-day legal fees
to his lawyer Rudy Giuliani, who's been working to overturn the results
of the election. Giuliani faces possible expulsion from the New York
State Bar Association after he told Trump's mob on January 6, "Let's
have trial by combat."
